Ingredients for Sunrise Sweet Potato & Avocado Breakfast Tacos

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. 2 In a bowl, toss the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, ground cumin, smoked paprika, and salt. Spread the potatoes evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. 3 Roast the sweet potatoes in the oven for about 20 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  4. 4 While the sweet potatoes are roasting, warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 1 minute on each side, or until pliable.
  5. 5 To assemble the tacos, divide the roasted sweet potatoes and black beans evenly among the warmed tortillas. Top each with slices of avocado, a sprinkle of red onion, and fresh cilantro.
  6. 6 Add a squeeze of lime juice to each taco for a zesty finish, and if desired, add a touch of minced jalapeño for extra heat.

Serving Suggestions

  • For an even heartier breakfast, serve these tacos with a side of scrambled eggs or a dollop of Greek yogurt. A fresh fruit salad featuring seasonal fruits like berries and melon pairs beautifully with the rich flavors of the tacos. To complete your breakfast, enjoy a refreshing glass of freshly squeezed orange juice or a warm cup of green tea.

Storage Tips

To store leftovers, place the roasted sweet potatoes and black beans in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in a skillet over medium heat before assembling your tacos. Keep the avocado and tortillas fresh by storing them separately and preparing them fresh for each serving.
